About this course

This two-year course leads to a full Pearson Edexcel iGCSE in Computer Science, but its value goes far beyond a single qualification.

Teaching the syllabus is the easy part. The real impact comes from our proven FunTech methodology, which shows your child how to study with efficiency, prepare effectively for and succeed in any GCSE exam setting.

Alongside the full syllabus, your child will learn how to:

  • Break down and understand the syllabus requirements
  • Build a realistic study plan and manage their workload
  • Revise actively, track progress and avoid common errors
  • Use past papers for insight, not just repetition
  • Understand how marks are awarded by the examiner
  • Interpret questions accurately and write for marks
  • Sit exams, with clarity, control and confidence
  • Build habits that support long-term academic success

Our objective is simple: to show your child that success isn’t guesswork, it’s a process. By the end of this course, they won’t just have an iGCSE. They’ll have a method they can apply to every GCSE subject that follows.


What your child will achieve

  • A full Pearson Edexcel iGCSE in Computer Science
  • A deep understanding of computing principles and Python programming
  • A structured approach to studying, revising and sitting exams
  • The confidence to approach future GCSEs with clarity and discipline

Who This Course is For

This two-year track follows the exam board’s recommended duration. It’s ideal those who want to experience the full process of understanding what a GCSE demands over the recommended duration, for young learners, and those with busy schedules.

FAQs

What does a virtual class mean?

A virtual class is a scheduled interactive online lesson delivered by FunTech.

All our virtual software is Citrix driven and so extremely safe

How does the virtual class work?

All students receive a virtual orientation lesson before the start of their course.

For each lesson, your child will receive an email invitation containing a link allowing them to log onto our virtual classroom. We schedule a maximum of four students who are predominately based in the UK, however, a few of our students have moved abroad due to parents work commitments and therefore log in from further afield.

The lessons themselves are the exact same as is delivered in a physical classroom. Through our virtual classroom environment, your child has the option to raise their hand, ask questions and also speak to the other students in their class (though we do have a mute all option '- just in case!)

FunTech teachers are able to pass control of their monitor to an individual student or share it amongst all the students. With permission, we can take control of a students' monitor to demonstrate concepts, share common mistakes or outstanding work as we would in a physical classroom.

What do we need to join a virtual class?

Good internet connection, headphones with a microphone and a computer.
